**************** Rick, in case you missed it, I sent you a PM yesterday. Mac

************* Not heard of Merging, will look into it Sadly, the DCS on PFM has gone. Mac

************* You're probably right, certainly can't afford new prices of the likes of DCS... hope to try the Terminator T2 if I decide to send the Aqua back. Mac

************ They both have a lush broad soundstage... the differences are minimal and I got a second opinion from a musician friend of mine who has keener ears than me and he thought it was about 55 45 in favour of the Aqua. Mac

************* Top man! thanks, appreciate it. Mac

Sorry guys, made a right dogs dinner of that, I can't seem to edit or delete the extra posts! Mac

I've had the La Scala at home for a couple of days and I'm really not sure how much better it is than my Luxman DA 06... a tad disappointed to be honest, as from the glowing reviews it receives, I was expecting much more... not that it's bad, it's superb, but not much of an upgrade on the Luxman. I guess it is a bit early, will give it till the end of next week before any decision.

The La Scala is insitu and I've been playing it pretty solidly for the past 24 hours, now and again going back to the Luxman DA 06... early days still, but to my ears, I'm not sure if the improvement is worth the outlay. Are there any La Scala owners out there willing to make a comment? Mac

********* Couldn't agree more Mac

For anyone who may be interested, Elite have a used La Scala for just under 4K Mac

*********** Apologies to the OP for going off topic, but just want to add, I was offered a La Scala on 30 day approval at a very good price... arives on Wednesday. Mac

Hi Aqua owners, I've just bought the Aqua La Scala on approval from Elite, should be here on Wednesday, it will be replacing a Luxman DA 06 DAC, can I expect a great improvement? Mac

************** On the owners thread for Denaphrips there's a guy who said that Musicraft weren't willing to give a home demo, but I'm due to have one with the Terminator T2. Having read this post though, I'm very curious about the Metrum Pavane and Aqua La Voce. Mac

************ No not at all, they're all valid concerns, point 2 worries me the most. Mac
